Risks

Ramsgate Western Undercliff bathing water could be affected by discharges from the Westcliff Pumping Station storm overflow at the south west corner of the harbour and there are also storm overflows in Pegwell Bay and the River Stour estuary. These storm overflows can discharge when heavy rainfall overwhelms the sewerage system. All these outfalls are designed not to affect bathing water compliance.
